Pope Francis Asked J.K. Rowling to Write Bible- Fiction! & Satire!

 
Summary of eRumor:
 
This is a forwarded email that appears to be an authentic news story that alleged that Pope Francis has requested that Harry Potter writer J.K. Rowling write a new version of the Holy Bible.

The Truth:
The Roman Catholic Church has not asked J.K. Rowling to write a new Bible.  This is a hoax and its source is a satire website called “Waterford Whispers News
The is a disclaimer page on the site that said, “Waterford Whispers News is a fabricated satirical newspaper and comedy website published by Waterford Whispers News.”
Nothing on this website should be taken seriously.
